Unpacks a Docker image.

Usage

usage: undocker.py [-h] [--ignore-errors] [--output OUTPUT] [--verbose]
                   [--debug] [--list] [--layer LAYER]
                   image

positional arguments:
  image

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --ignore-errors, -i   Ignore OS errors when extracting files
  --output OUTPUT, -o OUTPUT
                        Output directory (defaults to ".")
  --verbose, -v
  --debug, -d
  --list, --ls          List layers in an image
  --layer LAYER, -l LAYER
                        Extract only the specified layer

Examples

Extract an entire image:

$ docker save busybox | undocker -i -o busybox busybox

The -i option is necessary here because I am not running as root, and the extract operation will fail when it attempts to create device nodes.

List the layers in an image:

$ docker save busybox | undocker --list
